It borders on Bangladesh, and the Indian states of West Bengal and Meghalaya. The Brahmaputra divides the district into two parts. Tributaries of the Brahmaputra such as Gangadhar, Gaurang, Tipkai, Champamoti in the north and Jinjiram, Jinari and Kaloo in the south are all major contributors of floods in the area.HistoryIn pre-independence days, there was a wide metre gauge line: Katihar - Radhikapur - Biral - Parbatipur - Tista - Gitaldaha - Golakganj – Fakiragram.With the partition of India in 1947, railways in Assam got delinked from that of the rest of India.
